Brett and I will judge the entries and
then award the prize, the winning
painting will be posted on the site. We
will be judging the competition on the
15th of each month.
This months theme, entries which close
14th May 2008, is a spring scene. This
can be any medium and any scene as long
as the theme is spring time.
So good luck and we look forward to
seeing your entries.
France May 2008 Photos
We have just got back from our first
week in Quesmy, France for 2008.
Everyone had a great time.
We are still exploring this area of
France and we are finding more
interesting places to paint all the
time.
This year we spent a day at the Chateux, a day in Paris, 2 days along
the canals and a day at Pierrefonds.
The weather was fantastic, the food was
superb and the paintings were stunning.
For more
information on the France holiday or to
book for next year please visit the
France page.

New Site Design
Hello, Brett here, I am in the process
of rolling out a new site design which
is cleaner looking and easier to read.
This rollout will be over the next month
or so. As you can see the home page has
already been done. I hope you like it.
New Projects
Coming Soon
New painting projects will be uploaded next week. The
first being a Northumberland Farm scene, overlooking the
sea. The next project after that will be people based,
more specifically how to paint them the easy way.
Metal Palette now
pre loaded with paint
The famous metal palette that Charles uses is always in
great demand on the
eshop. But a regular question is
what order you lay your colours out in. Well now upon
request and at no extra cost, We will load the palette
with the squeezed out paint in the same order that
Charles organises his palette.
Based in Acklington, Charlies' home
village. Learn to paint the easy way, no
messing or fiddling about. Step by step
instructions from the master!
We have workshops for complete beginners
or those who have painted before, all
tuition is easy to follow and at an easy
going pace.
Workshops are a great social event, you
will meet like minded people from all
over the UK, the food is always good. We
have a hot and cold buffet for lunch and
Danish pastries during break. Most
importantly of course the tuition is
second to none.

Open Day 2008
17th August
2008
Its nearly that
time of year again. The birds are
signing, the trees are in full bloom...
and the Charles Evans Studio is gearing
up for its annual Open Day.
This year will
be slightly different to previous years.
We will still be offering free 45 minute
taster workshops, however we will have
more artists. Charles Evans, Carol
White, Terry Harrison & Fiona Peart will
be holding workshops throughout the day.
The catering tent will be open again
serving refreshments and food throughout
the day. Kirsty's cakes, for me, the
highlight of the catering tent last
year, will be on sale again.
We start at
10am and finish at 5pm.
The workshops will be filled on a booking system. To
register your place now! Contact Brett, who will make
your booking for you.
The
new book is due for release in a few
weeks. Pre order you copy now for
immediate dispatch.
Pull-out
tracings are included along with a clear
guide on how to transfer them to your
watercolour paper, so you don't need to
be able to draw to paint these wonderful
pictures. A useful section on what
materials to use will have you painting
like a pro in no time!
Five tracings, one for each
demonstrations. Clear, step-by-step
pictures make painting easy and fun.
Free bonus tracing.
Following on from the success of the
Simply Charles Evans movie downloads in
which we see Charlie painting at
Druridge Bay, Warkworth Castle, Morwick
Hall, we take a trip to the studio to
paint a Suffolk country scene step by
step.
